1946 Map of Northville

USGS Topo · Published 1946

About this map

Northville and its surrounding river valley appear in this immediate post-war survey, documenting the landscape of the southern Adirondacks during a period of transition. The sprawling Sacandaga Reservoir dominates the eastern half of the map, created by the damming of the Sacandaga River. Along the western shores, the F J & G RR provides a critical rail link, passing through Sacandaga Park and Sweets Crossing. The map reveals the interplay between the developed village center, featuring the Central School and a Gaging Sta, and the wilder reaches of Adirondack State Park. Genealogists can locate several family burial grounds, including Gifford Valley Cem near Gifford Lake and King Cem located near the Landing Field. The shoreline is marked by distinct points such as Paradise Point and Sinclaire Point, while the interior terrain rises toward Prospect Hill.
